Anyone know of any mATX i5 boards, that have RAID 5 built in?

I'd like to update my ESXi, some RAID wouldn't go a miss (that's supported by VMWare, but I can work that out... I could probably ebay an Adaptec card)

Just saw 16gb of RAM for £160... which considering VM's are very RAM munchy would be handy.

Oh, that's not a bad bet... that said I was kinda hoping to be able to put 16gb of RAM in it haha.

That one has 4x DIMM slots

Wish I had never looked at the prices of components, now I have a severe case of the I want's.

Thanks Roscop. I know exactly what you mean.

Actually looking at these a lot of them have the Intel RAID... which is a shame since VMWare doesn't support it =[ I think I might have to just a normal mobo and buy a controller card (or just scrap the RAID and get a 2TB drive)
